- Critics' reviews
-
-
"So magnetic is she that if Abramovic had chosen to be a baker, or a janitor, you could still make a film about her and it would be only slightly less bombastic, and no less stirring."
-
"A portrait of an artist whose life and work intertwine in ways even more compelling than might be imagined."
-
"An intelligent overview that makes a radical artist's work comprehensible to audiences with no previous awareness of her or her chosen path."
-
"A little pretentious maybe, but then you've got to wonder at a woman who could sit motionless in a wooden chair, eight hours a day for three months."
